Answer:

His main hope is freedom.

Explanation:

Frederick Douglass talks about hope throughout his narrative. Education, freedom, and abolition are three of the kinds of hope he has in his life. The clearest kind of hope depicted in his narrative is freedom undoubtedly: ‘for the hope of being free, I have no doubt but that I should have killed myself’. When talking about his relationship with his master Covey, he says ‘I was sometimes prevented to take my own life and that of Covey’s but was prevented by a combination of hope and fear’.  

The reason why Douglass holds on to the idea of hope for freedom is because thanks to education he was able to understand the basic principles of free America: “Now, take the Constitution according to its plain reading, and I defy the presentation of a single pro-slavery clause in it”.

Ah, classic Frederick Douglass.

On the story "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass", which I read last year, it explains the misery of slavery and how tough it was for him to escape slavery. He questions the ethics of slavery, and why it's immoral to hold people property over other people, when the Declaration of Independence said that "Everybody is equal". On the text, you will see that he secretly taught himself to read and write, just to spread his messages.
Frederick Douglass, as an abolitionist, hoped that one day, slavery would end. Why does he have this hope? Well, there is no debate to slavery. SLAVERY IS IMMORAL.

Explanation:

Desdemona's father, Brabantio, is a rich and important Venetian politician. He likes Othello and invites him to visit his house a lot—but he never expected Othello to "steal" his daughter. Furthermore, he never believed his darling little girl would marry Othello unless she was drugged or under some kind of spell.
